Smoke machines operate by heating the "juice" as they spray it.
I once made one from a frying pan filled with course steel wool. It
would be possible to use a propane camp stove and go without power.
A ****table generator might be less trouble/tricky/flamable etc.
Also try piping the smoke to many small outlets around the "door" so
the smoke is released as close to the "use" as possible.
